Page 163Because of this, and as is discussed in Chaps. 9 and 10, much current effort is
directed at improving the fracture resistance of ceramics. As a class, engineered
plastics are the least resistant to plastic deformation. The softest of them —
foamed ...

Page 2195.8 DEFORMATION OF TWO-PHASE AGGREGATES The deformation of two-
phase aggregates is discussed in this section. An aggregate differs from the two-
phase alloys discussed previously in one major respect; in aggregates, the
volume ...
